A washer that quits mid-cycle leaves you with a soaked pile of laundry and no plan B. We repair top-load and front-load washers across Knoxville - same-day service, upfront flat pricing, and a warranty on every job.
Top-Load or Front-Load - We Fix Them All, Right in Your Home
Whether it is a classic top-loader or a high-efficiency front-load machine, Knoxville Appliance Repair repairs every style of washing machine right in your Knoxville home. There is no hauling the unit to a shop and no waiting a week for an appointment - our technician comes to you with a stocked truck, diagnoses the problem on the spot, and completes most repairs in a single visit.
Every repair starts with an honest diagnosis. We tell you exactly what failed, what it costs to fix, and whether the repair is genuinely worth it compared to replacement. You approve an upfront flat-rate price before we touch a single bolt, and both parts and labor are backed by our warranty.
What's Going Wrong With Your Washer?
Washer Not Draining
If your washer finishes a cycle with the drum still full of water, the usual suspects are a failed drain pump, a clogged pump filter or coin trap, or a kinked drain hose. Small items - socks, coins, hair pins - work their way into the pump and stop it cold. We clear the blockage or replace the pump and have you draining properly the same visit.
Washer Won't Spin or Agitate
A washer that fills and drains but never spins usually has a worn drive belt, a failed lid switch or door lock, or a motor coupling problem. On front-loaders, a failed door latch assembly is the most common cause. We carry these parts on the truck, so this is typically a one-trip fix.
Washer Bouncing, Shaking, or Walking
A washer that thumps or walks across the floor during spin has a suspension problem - worn shock absorbers or suspension rods, a broken counterweight, or failed drum bearings. Left alone, the vibration destroys other components. We rebalance and replace the worn parts so it runs smooth and quiet again.
Washer Leaking Water
Water on the laundry room floor can come from a split fill hose, a cracked drain pump, a torn door boot on a front-loader, or a failed tub seal. Even a slow leak ruins flooring and invites mold, so do not wait on this one - shut off the water valves and give us a call.
Washer Filling With Too Much (or Too Little) Water
Overfilling or underfilling points to a faulty water inlet valve or a failed pressure switch that can no longer sense the water level. An overfilling washer can flood your laundry room in minutes. Both parts are a straightforward, affordable replacement for our techs.
Strange Noises While Filling or Spinning
Grinding, squealing, or roaring during a cycle usually means worn drum bearings, a failing belt, or a foreign object trapped between the drum and tub. Catching a bearing early is the difference between a modest repair and replacing the machine - call as soon as the noise starts.
Quick Washer Troubleshooting Before You Call
1. Check the power and the outlet
Make sure the washer is plugged in firmly and the breaker has not tripped. A washer that is completely dead is often an electrical supply problem, not the machine.
2. Check both water valves
Confirm the hot and cold supply valves behind the washer are fully open, and the fill hoses are not kinked behind the machine.
3. Redistribute the load
A single heavy item - a comforter or a rug - can unbalance the drum and stop the spin cycle. Even out the load and try again.
4. Clean the pump filter
Front-loaders have a small filter door near the floor. A clogged filter is the #1 cause of draining problems, and it takes two minutes to check.
5. Still stuck? Call us
If the washer still will not run right, do not keep force-restarting it - that can turn a small repair into a big one. Call (865) 459-7439 and we will diagnose it properly.

That is almost always a spin problem - a worn belt, a bad lid switch, or a drainage blockage. It is one of the most common and most affordable repairs we do.
